thanks guys , the tank has been running for about 3 months now , and i wanted to keep it somewhat open for quite a few big softies and also to be able to see through it into or out of my piercing room wich is the backside of the tank

Whereabout in the States are you? Do RC people who have posted in your thread get a discount for Tattoos if they come to your shop??:D :D

Why no SPS? A few large colonies would look great in there IMO. Having said that i'm more of a softie person myself. The way they sway in the current is really hypnotic. Beats the polyps of those multicoloured twigs.
 
sure 13 if you want to come in just let me know and i can give you the friend price!lol. and we are located in southern indiana, wich is just outside of louisville ky. great place to be especially if you are into horse racing. we decided to keep it on this side of the bridge to avoid all of the crap that goes along with the city scene. louisville is literally 5 minutes away from us ,like i said just across the bridge, so we are actually like a suburb of it. and no sps for the reason of wanting to get the movement of softies, and to keep the corals just noxious enough to keep the angels and butterflies from picking them to death. besides that i have an almost 11 ft long sps tank at home and wanted something diferent and easy to maintain at work
 
and by the way thanks everyone for the kind words about the studio, i will post before pics of the building one day so you can see the amount of work that went inito the place, i pretty much had to rip the place down to bare studs and start from ground zero, wich was cool because i got exactly what i wanted out of the place, and to ensure it i did about 75% of the work myself. so it is truely nice to get so much positive feedback. we are currently building a nice detailed website for the shop and i will post a link here when we get it done and launched
 
I like the shop set up greatly...oh yeah and the in wall setup as well. Your shop looks quite clean and fresh for a tat shop these days. I love the glass block.
 
thanks, my whole goal with the new shop was to show people what a tattoo studio should be like , not one of these seedy little back alley places or one of these overglorified places you see on t.v. that have health code violations every five minutes, like smoking or tattooing barefoot or shirtless. the glassblock is soon to be backlit with red l.e.d also.

Cool, if i'm ever around that area, i'll be sure to drop by. I'm not from the States actually, but i have family in Wisconsin, NY, and Buffalo so i do visit quite often. I have been to a few tattoo shops and the majority of them seem very unwelcoming (not the people, just the shops) but yours has a real nice touch to it. Just out of curiosity, is the "Almost 11' Tank" thread yours? Started by Jeremy Blaze me thinks. Always wanted to ask why only 2' wide? Besides that, i love it.

p.s: I'm in the midst of designing a tattoo for myself. Actually, it has been a work in progress for almost 2 years now since i want it to be absolutely perfect. Maybe i can run it by you and get an expert opinion sometime.
 
yeah 13 the 11 ft thread is mine as well, my close friend jeremy started it for me. and yeah if you want to run your design by me i will be glad to take a look at it for you , and if you are in the states a trip down to indiana would be worth the quality work that me and everyone else in my studio put out, at last count i think we have upwards of 70 plus awards total for our work
 
Whoa... award winning work...and upwards of 70 at that!! Looks like i am going to have to drop by then. I'm a real art geek...well... not all art, just tatts ,comic book art (Magic cards, DnD) and Spawn action figures...i even got a mini portfolio of all my so called designs but i'm sure none of them are anywhere near award winning standard. Let me know when you get your site up and running.
 
all are welcoome to come in , and if you do ask for chris, thats me i am the owner and i will take care of any one referring to this add, and like i said i will post a link to the new website when we launch it, and 13 dont worry about it , as long as you give me a decent base drawing to work off of i can turn it in to something highend for you!
 
Alright Chris, btw, my name is Chris also. I'll definitely pass you a few sketches to look at soon. As for now, i'm going to have to say bye to RC for a week as i'm off to India in a couple of hours. Goa...here i come!!!
 
thanks ron, like i said our quality would make it worth the trip for anyone, plus if it is someone off of here i would personaly take care of them amd do a good price for them. and trust me i have had and do have people coming from that far and further . i am truely blown away with the amount of response on here , once again thank you every one! it is much appreciated
 
Well honestly--I'm happy with what I have--as long as I stay away from a tat shop lol. It's kinda like going to an lfs...it's hard to leave without buying something :)

But like I said, your shop is leaps and bounds over any of the shops I have been into.
 
lol we are actualy holding our local reef clubs meeting at the shop next week, i am sure i am going to be bombarded with questions and will probably end up tattooing someone lol, as you are right ron its hard to walk out of either kind of place without something new!
 
i just figured ou tthat i will be getting a few new pieces of large coral in this week , i will post pics as soon as i get them settled, by the way any one have any experience with butterflies and gargonians?
